After reading the formula of the cold incense pill, I felt a tightness in my heart, and I couldn't help but worry about Xue Baochao. The formula and use of cold incense pills are very problematic, and they are even more unlucky. Xue Baochao's taking of cold incense pills was an important foreshadowing for her and Jia Baoyu not to have children.
At the end of the sequel to "Dream of the Red Chamber", it is proposed that "Lan Gui Qifang", which means that Jia Lan will meet with his cousin, that is, the son of Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochao, the future Zhongxing Jia family.
Of course, the original text did not say that Xue Baochao had a son named Jia Gui. Lan Gui Qifang only represents the meaning of the two brothers who both lifted the toad palace to fold the gui, and the name of Jia Gui was invented by later generations.
In fact, after eighty times as a sequel, it can also be seen from here that it is not Cao Xueqin's original intention.
For example, the story of "smoking firewood under the snow" told by Liu Grandma's second entry into the Rongguo Mansion clearly alludes to Xue Baochao's marriage to Jia Baoyu with the gift of continuing the string, and chong xi for the terminally ill Jia Mother. Unfortunately, Jia Mu died on the same day, and Jia Baoyu kept filial piety for a year and could not round the house with Xue Baochao. Until he left home and was still in the period of filial piety, Xue Baochao was always a complete body and could not have children. The round room of the continuation of the book does not make sense.
The key is that Xue Baochao eats "cold incense pills", which is doomed to make it difficult for her to have children.
When Bao Chao saw the question, he smiled and said, "It's okay not to use this fang, if you use this fang, you really trivialize people to death." There are all limited medicinal materials in the East and the West, and only the word 'coincidental' is rare: twelve white peony flower buds that bloom in spring, twelve white lotus buds that bloom in summer, twelve white hibiscus buds in autumn, and twelve plum blossom buds in winter. These four flower buds are dried in the sun on the spring equinox of the following year, and they are studied together with the end of the medicine. And the rain of this day's rain twelve dollars... Twelve dollars for the dew on this day, twelve dollars for frost on this day, twelve dollars for snow on this day. Mix these four kinds of water, mix the medicine, add twelve dollars of honey, twelve dollars of white sugar, and take the pills of the size of the dragon's eye, and put them in the old magnetic altar and bury them under the roots of the flowers. If you are sick, take out a pill and send it down with twelve points of yellow cedar decoction. ”
Xue Baochao's illness was the opposite of Lin Daiyu's.
Lin Daiyu is born with insufficient endowments caused by physical weakness and susceptibility. It needs hot medicines such as ginseng and cinnamon to nourish the body.
Xue Baochao was born with excessive endowments and heat poisons. Use cold incense pills to neutralize excess congenital heat poison.
Lin Daiyu's illness needs the conditioning of "small fire and slow stew" to supplement the congenital deficiencies. Xue Baochao's illness requires cold water to cool down and calm the congenital heat poison.
Therefore, the "rain, dew, frost and snow" used by cold incense pills are all "cold" and have the effect of fighting heat poison.
And the medicinal primer given by the bald monk is the key to the cold incense pill, and it is also the real "cold incense". Where does it come from? There is no doubt that it is the essence of the grass and trees of the Daizhu Immortal Grass.
It was precisely because the Daizhu Immortal Grass was extracted from a large number of grass and wood essences, resulting in the lack of innate endowments of Lin Daiyu after reincarnation, and was made into a cold incense pill for Xue Baochao to eat.
This plot is extremely frightening! Isn't it "Lin Daiyu" that Xue Baochao ate in one bite, and finally became the "Daizhu Fairy"?
Junji Yakan's view of the Red Chamber believes that this just shows that Lin Daiyu was a Daizhu Fairy in her previous life, and Xue Baochao was a manna in her previous life. The existence of cold incense pills confirms that the statement of "unity of chalcogenous dai", is very accurate.
Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochao are one and two lives. Each of them concluded the past life cause and effect with the attendant of the god Ying, and eventually they still had to achieve unity and become a pearl fairy. Xue Baochao's eating of cold incense pills is a figurative meaning.
Xue Baochao's replacement of Lin Daiyu to marry Jia Baoyu is also a metaphor for the first and second half of the life of the two of them.
Gossip is rare, the medicine primer and "rain dew frost and snow" have a source, and the four seasons of flower buds are of course meaningful.
First of all, the conditions of flower buds and rain dew frost and snow, "old magnetic altar, buried under the flower roots, yellow cedar decoction to serve", in addition to other deep meanings, are in line with the meaning of the five elements of life and the five tastes of life, forming the pharmacology of the perfect elixir of heaven and man.
Secondly, the collection of flower buds in the four seasons is the most clear hint that the flowers are fruitless, and it is clear that Xue Baochao will have no children in the future.
Think about it, the divine attendant and the Daizhu fairy in this life, is to end each other's cause and effect, how can the child continue to be entangled in love.
Xue Baochao's heat poison lies in the "heat" of manna, if it were not for the powerful nourishing ability of manna, the Daizhu Immortal Herb would talk about prolonging the years and cultivating into human form.
Manna is the "medicine" of the great tonic for the daisy immortal herb.
Daizhu fairy grass combines with manna to transform into Daizhu fairy. Both have cause and effect with the Divine Attendant, and they also need to be concluded separately. Thus the [lifelong mistake] of Bao Daichao came from this. It is even less likely to leave the child.
Of course, as a bystander, who are you guessing? None other than Shi Xiangyun. The surname Stone "Stone", giving people a stone ring, and lying drunk on a stone bench... No one is more apt than her.
